Although Covid-19 still lingers around our communities, our team has been working diligently in different communities in efforts to vaccinate those who are unable to go out and get vaccinated. Our mobile clinic is 100% free to those in the community and it is a great way for us to reach out to those in the community who may be hesitant to get vaccinated. Here are some photos from our mobile vaccine clinic!

In efforts to reach out to the community, our team does homelessness relief where we hand out fresh peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that the amazing kids from ECLC donate to us. Also, a huge thanks to Dr. Bowe's former student who brought in three bags full of hospital socks from her job that she washed and donated for the homelessness relief. The littlest things can make such a huge difference.

We want to start off by saying a HUGE thank you to everyone in the community! We just got some of our first photos from our Sister friends in Poland with our supplies.

We also received photos from the Warehouse for Operation White Stork in Krakow, Poland, but this time with some of our critic
